More testing

Last night did a little more testing and used another coma corrector with a different spacing. Less reflections. Field curvature is improved. Still need to increase spacing a tad. I as also tested the automated focuser which helped a lot. Seeing was horrible but still pretty happy with the field improvement. Getting closer now. Most importantly the scope survived a trip indoors and back out without losing collimation. So the primary cell works.
